Zainab Ali: Youth Inspire CEO on the number of young people who are unemployed

Concerns too many young people are finding it too hard to find a job.  15.2% of young people in the labour force are now unemployed, while 13.8% of all young people aren't in any employment, education, or training.  Youth Inspire works to get young people in Lower Hutt into jobs.  Chief Executive Zainab Ali told Ryan Bridge many of the people they're working with are really struggling.   She says there's a rhetoric out there that if someone wants to work there's a job but promises this isn't the case.   LISTEN ABOVE  The podcasts in the SME Stream contain general information only, not financial or professional advice.
